Question
What is a difference between pyReportName and pyReportPageName?
Hello. I'd like to utilize the activity 'pxRetrieveReportData'. There are some parameters:
- pyReportName - a name of a report to invoke;
- pyExportClass - a class of the invoked report;
- pyPageName - a name of a Code-Pega-List page for results;
- pyReportParamPageName - a name of a Embed-QueryInputs page;
- pyReportPageName - ?
- pySkipSummaryProcessing - ?
- pyUseAlternateDB - ?
https://pdn.pega.com/sites/pdn.pega.com/files/help_v718/procomhelpmain.htm#rule-/rule-obj-/rule-obj-report-/rule-obj-report-definition/related.htm
I didn't find any clear info about the last three parameters.
Especially I'm interested in a difference between 'pyReportName' and 'pyReportPageName'.
Thank you.
Hi Oleksandr,
If you go through the step 3 and 4 of activity pxRetrieveReportData.
Step 3 and 4 come into play only when the parameter "pyReportPageName” is provided. This is used for virtual report definitions where you have the report definition page in the clipboard and want to execute it rather than the saved instance. We can only know if this is coming into play if we know from the parameter page that pyReportPageName is actually getting passed and what the content of that page is.
Thank you
